The system will not boot with every time different panics. Some of them:

assert failed: esp_mmu_map_init esp_mmu_map.c:211 (hw_mem_regions[i].region_size % CONFIG_MMU_PAGE_SIZE == 0)

assert failed: s_prepare_reserved_regions memory_layout_utils.c:102 (reserved[i].start <= reserved[i].end)

Error logs or terminal output

No response

Steps to reproduce the behavior

In order to reproduce this problem you need to have a firmware with OTA support.

1. Boot flashed firmware in QEMU (OTA1)
2. Prepare OTA2 for upload (pay attention, the content of OTA image should differ for at least in 4-8 bytes from one that is booted right now)
3. Flash OTA2, now wait white system reboots, ESP32 will panic and will revert to OTA1.
